Description

Begonia conchifolia 'Rouge Variegata'

Name: Begonia conchifolia A.Dietr. ‘Rouge Variegata’

Etymology: The genus name Begonia honors Michel Bégon. The specific epithet conchifolia translates roughly to “shell-leaved” and refers to the characteristic leaf shape. ‘Rouge Variegata’ describes the striking reddish and variegated leaf pattern.

Origin/Distribution: The parent species originates from tropical Central America.

Description and Notes: This special form of Begonia conchifolia is cultivated for its compact growth and extraordinary leaf pattern. We recommend bright, filtered light to partial shade, avoiding intense midday sun. A loose, humus-rich, and well-draining substrate should be kept consistently slightly moist, though the surface may be allowed to dry out slightly between waterings. Avoid waterlogging. Temperatures of approximately 18–26 °C, increased humidity, and gentle air circulation promote healthy, beautifully colored leaves.
